Ah, missed that the SSD will be to load the games on, which makes sense, sorry. Yeah, on the W11 machine here, it’s the opposite, the OS lives on the SSD for a really speedy bootup, and if there’s any room left (500 GB), games can be installed, played, then uninstalled in order to accelerate its demise. 😛
HDDs are different, the motor driving the…[Read more]

Ah, it’s a Valve game, and the site directly links to Steam for downloads, so you have it installed then. There are many things that appeal about the Steam interface, having certainly maturated, but not to the point of suppuration.
Yes, work & play. Surely there will (or does) exist a (non VR) game that folks with shout from the rooftops runs…[Read more]

Wow, blast from the past, the idea GLaDOS is a personification of Prometheus is interesting. Playing it on the ‘Nix? Possible with Steam, not with GOG.
Ah, okay, they seemed to have more of the right shape. If there ever was an animation in the loading of the web page with the aforesaid share links falling from the top to rest in their current…[Read more]

Definitely Sin City, why none have appeared on FTA here to date is cardinal!
From Dusk to Dawn is another Tarantino creation, and fits into the description of uneven. Some of the best scenes ever in noir schlock intermingled with surprisingly ordinary dialogue and plot/character development. Still recommended for the good bits. 🙂
Currently…[Read more]

Obviously a step up from the W10 Windows Calculator, which itself isn’t too bad. Baldur’s Gate 3 is now released, and a few mods besides. Have a Baldur’s Gate (1) game save ~13 years back with 75% completion. Really wanted to complete that before getting onto BG2, other stuff such as Oblivion got in the way. 😛

Whenever it wants to rain, the Peron’s tree frog gets active and frequents the drainpipes, with something like this:

Obviously a home recording with a mic, or from the tablet is possible, a water proof pipe camera & mic would be ideal! 🙂
There’s a name for the image effect in the following video -…[Read more]

Nice one, the Wikipedia article on GladOS never got to GA, but they did manage to pull the Botticelli source from this book.
Ever play Portal – Wolpaw was great wasn’t he, also missed out on Pyschonauts as well. 🙁
Just love the crumbs – is that what you call them?
     

One of the links on his site has been updated to this, very interesting lead…[Read more]

That Jack Frost fella looks scary. Yeah, lets get all a gush with Kill Bill, anything with Sly, Van Damme or Segal. These days, John Wick has the wherewithal to address many issues. 😛

Subscribed to the Cult Cinema Classics channel, they want $6.99 bucks a month to join it though. What’s the benefit of that other than no ads?

Have you seen The…[Read more]

Tir Na Nog: Land of Eternal Youth, which is the same as land of old creeps as per yours truly. 😛
One could weasily understand his point!
Totally sold on Yuji Ohno – his jazzy arrangements:

Good luck with the X-Fi, dug up a four year old post with driver problems.
Driver problems with VR known at AMD and Reddit. No issue without the VR headset then?
As a matter of interest, tried more than one monitor yet? There’s a few issues with PrgLnch & W11, we’ll get to them. 🙂

Were you almost sold with Eve – or do we wish for a tutorial on how to survive stuff on a shoestring budget?
Made some ridiculous alternatives to The Sky is Blue. 😛
What do we have to do to get awarded a Wikipedia Barnstar? Here’s one to pin on the door of the vault:

Fantastic!
Wikipedia has a fiery talk page about FlatPak, do you think the article says it all? The Synaptic talk page is much more demure. 🙂
If going the soundcard route, any ones of particular interest?

Curious about the sproingies (Q*bert never made it over here), so here’s a demo:

Careful with that BSOD saver in case the Kernel Panic turns out to be a real one. 😛
All the dancing collared cats of Burdekin may now perform cartwheels as the NYT un-subscription succeeded!

You’ve been unsubscribed

Fabulous, definitely like some of that over with warm garlic/onion/herb bread to help it down. Groucho’s Note: Beware that too much duck broth means duck breath!
Neighbour is a cattle farmer, so brought over some oxtails, have about just enough for a delicious oxtail soup!

Definitely firing up some project ideas going forward, would a heat gun make a difference?

Over here we prefer to euthanase rather than euthanise!
If there is anything we don’t know about dark matter, Euclid will give it a jolly good go, or die trying!

🙂 Can’t find any dragon heaters, but very interested in a humidifier:

Do you run a browser through Linux/POP? What do you do for security/firewall – put stuff in the hosts file or something else.
Does the H/W logging in Linux provide any other benefits from Windows, are the logs catch-all and easy to analyse?
A UPS is important addition, sudden…[Read more]

Blow some of that rain down here please!
The curtains on Nature’s theatre are never drawn, and everyone gets a front seat, (at least in co-op mode.) 😛
Setting aside the usual temptations, how has Eve evolved since the last time you played it?
That’s three times my monthly data allocation! CODMW is another behemoth.

Taken the bike out for a spin recently – or is the weather still uncooperative?
Very dry over here- there was a shower a few weeks ago with a rainbow out the back!

I’d start off with Fritz, they have a good bunch of tutorials to get started with, and the pages are nicely put together, and things are well explained. The others are great as well, the GEDA is really impressive.

It’s going back to the day of signup to SO (March 2013) when it copied over the Gravatar profile as it were. Cannot recall using Gravatar before then, must have done it through some WP website then.
There’s an AutoHotkey for X11 based on the earliest AHK V1 (2004). It seems Windows has changed so much, it would be a gargantuan effort to make a…[Read more]
